Post script to this thread, I recently quit keeping the parosprhomenus and vaillantis. Producing enough r/o water for it was a chore. Endlessly hatching bbs was also a chore– there was too much water and too much live food needed. The tank was not understocked, that was a bad idea. Just too big of a tank with too many fish in it, and no babies to show for it.
Want to keep parosphromenus in the near future, in a small tank as is recommended.
These fish are at Uncle Ned’s Fish Factory, unless someone bought them in the last few days.
A pair of vaillantis, two female vaillantis, and probably one female and two males of parosphromenus sintangensis(?).
Separate question, is parosphromenus paludicola available very often? I haven’t seen it for sale from the places that I see licorice gouramis for sale from. The description says it is an easier and more widespread species but I don’t see it for sale anywhere.
